No, not to modify that function, but if you know the offset from _text (via
the vmlinux), you can easily calculate it for that function.

I mentioned having a way to pass in the vmlinux debug info address and
subtract the kaslr_offset from it. But that's actually unnecessary. If you
have the address of the function you want, and the address of _text, both
from the debug info of vmlinux, you can simply pass in "_text+offset", and
then use kallsyms to give you _text, and add the offset to give you the
address for create_local_trace_kprobe().
